Translight Series
The Translight Series is a family of premium-printed cotton backdrops — exclusively developed by Big Image — and currently the only solution of its kind in the world. Designed to work seamlessly with front light, backlight, and controlled light transitions, each backdrop can reach sizes up to 12 × 50 meters (40 × 150 feet).
Translight Day to Night
Translight Day to Night is designed for continuous, seamless transitions between times of day using a single backdrop. A daytime image is printed on one side of the fabric, while a night-time image is printed on the reverse, precisely aligned. When lit from the front, the day scene is visible. When backlighting is introduced, the night scene gradually appears. By balancing front and back light, smooth and realistic transitions from morning to day to night can be achieved.
Translight Magic
Translight Magic allows a single backdrop to carry two different images, one on each side. When the backdrop is front-lit, only the front image is visible. When lighting shifts behind the fabric, the image on the reverse side appears, revealing a second scene. This enables visual transformations without moving or replacing the backdrop. Printed on cotton as a seamless piece, Translight Magic provides a clean and uninterrupted expression even at large scale. The transition is controlled entirely through lighting, making it suitable for moments where timing, precision, and simplicity are critical.
Double-side print
All Translight backdrops are produced as seamless cotton pieces using large-format printing technology. This enables uninterrupted imagery at scales up to 50 × 12 meters (164 × 39 feet). In a double-side print, the same motif is printed on both sides of the cotton fabric with front-to-back alignment. This construction increases color saturation, reduces glare, and creates a more balanced visual expression when the backdrop is lit from different angles. When backlit, the image gains depth and atmospheric presence while maintaining clarity and color fidelity. By adjusting light direction and intensity, the backdrop can transition between subtle and dramatic expressions without any physical change to the scenery.
Translight Series Technical Benefits
